Helical Head Planer 5HP 1Ph JWP-208HH 708544","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe JET JWP-208HH is a 20 in. helical head wood planer driven by a 5 HP single-phase induction motor, engineered for commercial woodworking shops and professional woodworkers milling heavy, rough-sawn lumber into finished stock. Built with heavy-duty cast iron table construction and a one-piece welded steel base, this stationary machine maintains steady workpiece support and dampens vibration during full-width surfacing passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cutterhead features 68 staggered carbide insert knives arranged in a 20 in. full-width helical configuration, delivering smooth surface finishes on figured or difficult grain while operating at reduced noise levels compared to straight-knife cutterheads. A two-speed gearbox with an automatic chain tensioner allows quick feed rate changes between 24 FPM and 31 FPM to accommodate high material removal or fine finish requirements. Thickness adjustments are controlled using a large handwheel with a positive gear drive and a 1\/16 in. increment height scale. Three steel infeed and outfeed roller sets continuously maintain downward pressure to help eliminate board snipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor operator safety and motor protection, magnetic controls shield against voltage drops and prevent unexpected machine restarts following power loss. Dust collection is integrated via a 5 in. dust port requiring a minimum airflow rating of 400 CFM to maintain a clean shop environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelical Cutterhead:\u003c\/strong\u003e Equipped with 68 staggered carbide knife inserts across a 20 in. width for quiet cutting action and smooth board finishes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 HP Induction Motor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powered by a 5 HP single-phase motor operating on 220V\/230V power for heavy-duty planing passes up to 3\/32 in. cutting depth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-Speed Gearbox:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delivers 24 FPM and 31 FPM feed rates with an automatic chain tensioner for rapid feed speed adjustments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-Snipe Roller System:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three-roller sets on both infeed and outfeed drive boards smoothly to reduce end snipe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision Cast Iron Table:\u003c\/strong\u003e Offers a smooth-ground 25-3\/4 in. x 20 in. working surface for stable workpiece support.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight Scale \u0026amp; Handwheel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gear-driven handwheel paired with a 1\/16 in. increment height scale provides repeatable depth control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnetic Controls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protect the motor from low-voltage conditions and prevent accidental restarts after power interruptions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWelded Steel Base:\u003c\/strong\u003e One-piece steel base construction keeps the machine planted during heavy material processing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Dust Port:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 in. dust port connects to shop dust collection systems operating at a minimum 400 CFM.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Jet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44968517632093,"sku":"JT708544","price":4999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/1342\/3453\/files\/708544_main.webp?v=1788202633","url":"https:\/\/beavertools.com\/products\/jet-20-in-helical-head-planer-5hp-1ph-jwp-208hh-708544","provider":"Beaver Industrial Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
